JOJO: Bizarre Adventure

Coastline, submarine mooring area.

Jotaro dove in—oh wait, you can't dove in on the beach.

Jotaro summoned "Star Platinum" and plunged into the sea.

He has a PhD in oceanography, so it's reasonable that he's an expert swimmer.

With his physique, his swimming speed is in no way inferior to that of professional athletes.

(That makes perfect sense. Look at the original story; he used the "Wheel of Fate" to create a hole more than ten meters deep in just three seconds, leaving everyone dumbfounded.)

After arriving at sea and assessing the situation, Jotaro frowned.

This sea... is teeming with sea monsters!

However, he would not be intimidated by this scene. He was already the epitome of invincibility, and now he was even blessed with the power of "immortality." He would not be afraid to fight these guys even now.

But the most important thing now is not to argue with these guys, but to find the Stand user who controls them.

The sea monsters scattered in fear after noticing the strange human, but the Stand user's shadow did not appear at all.

As Jotaro swam forward, he used "Star Platinum" to observe his surroundings. With this superhuman vision, he basically wouldn't miss anything.

As he walked along, he felt something was off. The monsters gave him a strange feeling, as did the surrounding environment.

Just then, he felt a powerful impact.

Immortality does not block his senses, so he can feel changes in his surroundings.

It was this shock that made him think of something.

"This attack performance... could it be that the opponent's ability is not water control, or is there more than one enemy?"

Before he could think any further, "Platinum Star" suddenly punched the empty space beside him.

"what?!"

The punch seemed to have hit something, and a figure appeared before Jotaro's eyes—no, two figures.

It was a blue humanoid monster and a reddish-purple humanoid, which must have been a stand-in.

The blue monster that looks like a fishman from a movie is probably the real thing.

"You actually managed to find me!"

The fishman was shocked. Yes, that thing really was a fishman, like the kind in anime, like "One Piece".

It was only at this point that we learned about this guy's true Stand ability.

Stand name: Don't guess (he гaдan)

Original form: Akshere (Fishman race)

Destructive power A

Speed ​​B

Range B

Endurance B

Precision C

Growth potential D

Ability: To interfere with the perception of something by others, making them perceive it as exaggerated or underestimated.

Here are some examples to give you an idea of ​​what happened before.

First, there was the grounding. It was actually just a minor scrape, but Captain Ringo's perception was exaggerated, so he made the decision to be forced to anchor.

The submarine was later attacked by a bomb, but everyone's auditory and visual perception of the explosion was exaggerated, so they didn't notice the bomb.

Those sea monsters are actually just ordinary fish that rise to the surface; they are perceived as sea monsters only because people's perceptions are exaggerated.

The tsunami was initially perceived as being as small as waves, but it was only later that it returned to normal and was discovered by everyone.

This perception affects not only vision, but also all senses in a unified way.

Having discussed the Stand ability that is "not to be guessed," let's talk about Akelle, the original user.

As a fish-man, he possesses many abilities superior to those of humans.

It grants the ability to breathe underwater, greater physical resilience, greater strength, and a significant boost in power when underwater.

"Since you managed to catch me once, you'll probably do it again. In that case, let me deal with you head-on."

As a merfolk warrior, Akshere had his own pride, and his previous methods were merely to deal with the enemy's overwhelming numbers.

Now that he only has this one opponent, he is confident that he will not lose in a one-on-one duel.

"Don't guess!"

With a powerful shout, the red-purple Stand immediately assumed a fighting stance.

Then the two charged at Jotaro together.

Jotaro wasn't slow to react either; "Star Platinum" immediately met the attack head-on with a straight punch.

If you only look at the stats, "Don't Guess" is a close-range power-type Stand. Although its range reaches 15 meters, its power is still considerable.

However, Akshere was unaware that he was facing the strongest power in the JoJo world, "Star Platinum".

"Eula!"

The two sides clashed, and "Don't Guess" and Akshere were sent flying.

"Holy shit!!"

Akserle immediately cursed inwardly, "Is this guy really human? Can a Stand with such power really be possessed by a human?"

If the previous tearing apart of the tsunami could be attributed to sheer power, then the power displayed by "Star Platinum" in this clash is enough to shake Akserle's worldview.

He has fought countless Stand users over the years, but most of those Stands are not even as powerful as his "Don't Guess".

This stunt double, who looks as strong as a gorilla, actually has overwhelming power over him.

What he didn't know was that this was the result of holding back.

If Jotaro were to go all out, he could turn Jotaro into Deep Sea King with a single punch.

"No, we absolutely cannot confront this substitute head-on. It seems we have no choice but to try and attack the original body."

No matter what methods this guy used to stay underwater for so long, humans ultimately cannot overcome the resistance of the water flow. Coupled with my superior strength as a fish-man, the advantage in underwater combat lies with me.

Thus, this merman warrior made the same judgment as a certain Principal Jiang, and ironically, they both misjudged their opponent.

He didn't even consider using his abilities to deal with the person in front of him, which was even more arrogant.

"Don't guess," Akselle briefly activated his ability and disappeared from Jotaro's sight.

Two seconds later, the blue figure appeared beside Jotaro, whose Stand was restraining "Star Platinum".

He certainly doesn't have abilities like fishman karate, but he is quite proficient in techniques for fighting at sea.

"Sea Current Air Palm!"

Akserle struck Jotaro in the chest with both palms. If it were an ordinary person, the best-case scenario would be broken ribs, followed by damage to the lungs and heart.

Jotaro wasn't worried about any of that. His "Don't waste it" ability made him immune to physical damage. He just fell backward and lost his balance.

Aksel also noticed the problem, but he wasn't worried about being counterattacked.

Although this human did not know how he defended himself against the attack, this already proved that his ability was of the survival and defense type.

Then his physical attack capabilities wouldn't be very strong, especially in water, where even stabilizing his body and moving would be difficult...

"puff!"

A fist slammed into his cheek, making him see stars.

"This guy... his true form is so powerful! Is he really human?!"

Seeing the burly man holding up the brim of his hat and his imposing stand-in beside him, the distraught Akshere instinctively tried to use his ability to escape.

But how could his speed possibly match that of the "Platinum Star," which is close to the speed of light?

"Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola!"
